“…Augustini and Trabal [11] divided the withdrawal reasons among boxers into interrelated factors, namely the difference between the participant's expectations and the reality of the sport, the quality of the relationship between training partners, the coaching standards and the organizational quality of clubs. While this classification of withdrawal reasons can be a useful tool to identify patterns or trends within the withdrawal phenomenon, it may also limit scientists and policy makers in their investigations concerning withdrawal from sports.…”

The aim of this study was to identify the main reasons for withdrawal from team sports and to examine the influence of significant others (i.e., coaches, parents, peers, and siblings) in the decision making concerning withdrawal from youth sports. An attempt was also made to compare withdrawal components and the influence of significant others in terms of gender, level of competition and years of involvement in youth sports. The participants in this study were young football (American soccer) (n=397), ice hockey (n=88) and basketball (n=50) players who had terminated their participation in their sports. Principal component analysis was used to reduce the number of withdrawal items and identify principal withdrawal components. The results indicated that having other things to do and a decline in excitement were the most important reasons for withdrawal. Coaches and teammates appeared to be the two main groups of significant others who influenced young player's decision making related to their withdrawal. Statistically significant differences in withdrawal components related to ability and social issues were found between gender and years of involvement. The present findings highlight the factors that are related to the incidence of withdrawal, and at the same time, underline the role of significant others within the contexts of sport participation. Recommendations and practical implications for coaches and policy makers to reduce the withdrawal rate among young athletes are provided.

The reasons young athletes drop out of sport have eluded scientists and sport organizations for many decades. Despite a large body of research on the subject, unanswered questions remain. This article reports on a new research approach that analyses sport withdrawal as a process. The study draws on Ebaugh’s sociological theory of disengagement and is based on data from semi-structured interviews with 12 girls aged 12 to 17 and 12 of their parents. By studying withdrawal from sport as a process, we found that the reasons comprise a combination of several salient interplaying factors related to changes. Organizational changes in sport and changes in the young athletes’ overall lives, together with changes in normative cultural and individual expectations associated with the young athlete role, are decisive for these girls to withdraw from sport. Furthermore, the disengagement process may be fairly long and emotional for young athletes, and less reversible the further into the process they progress.

“…Considering other aspects of the present study results showed that the effect of educational factors on dropout from skating is more than median level. Augustini and Trabal (1995) and Molinero et al (2009) have implied that school curriculum is among the reasons for sport dropout. In their opinion, curricula with a strong emphasis on hard competitive exercises are more likely to lead to sport dropout.…”

The main drop-out reasons from the sport of roller skating amongst Iranian youth skaters has been examined. A questionnaire with 53 items (adopted from Enoksen, 2011) representing seven subscales namely: training factors and facilities, executive factors and team, education and work obligations, motivational aspects, social-cultural environment, choice of other sport activities and interests and economic factors was especially developed for this research. Responses were measured on a Likert scale ranging from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree" in relation to each statement. In all 112 skaters predominantly male (mean age 17.1, SD = 1.63) with a mean = 5.43 years of experience (SD = 2.92) that had discontinued in the past two years completed the questionnaire. Results of one sample t-tests showed that all factors expect "social-cultural environment" are significant indicators for drop out from skating with "economical factors" scoring the highest ranking. Correlational analysis showed that younger participants agree more strongly that "executive factors and team" and "education and work obligations" were the best predictors of drop out. Those with fewer years of experience considered "training factors and facilities", "motivational aspects and social and cultural environment" as more likely reasons for quitting. Implications of the findings are discussed.
